Sweater Mania

Never one to concentrate on one thing at a time, I am now knitting two sweaters at once. Henley Perfected in a duck egg blue and Arisaig in a bluey/lilac heathery yarn. Am a bit nervous about fitting given my podgy bits, and the lace making it hard to see what might fit. Am not very experienced at sweaters for people over a foot tall. I am trying really hard to finish the Arisaig before I start anything else. It is hard. Back and 2 fronts finished. 1.5 sleeves to go....

The Arisaig sweater is beautiful! I'm currently working on scarves for my nieces and have spent the afternoon mastering raspberry stitch (it took a while but I have it figured now!!) which I'm using to knit little purses from glittery wool. :)
